Windows 10 driver for TP Link Archer T4UH not initialising
Windows 10 driver for TP Link Archer T4UH not initialising
2015-07-31 17:46:24
Region : Australia

Model : Archer T4UH

Hardware Version : Not Clear

Firmware Version : Not Clear

ISP : Tesltra


Hi there, I was wondering if anybody could help me out.

I just installed Windows 10 and my WiFi adapter isnt working, when I go to device manager and open up the adapter it reads (Windows cannot initialize the device driver for this hardware. (Code 37)).
I have tried the following;

• Uninstalled driver from device manager and from control panel and reinstalled
• Connected to the internet via ethernet and attempted to download the drivers through device manager but It says I am using the best driver.

I noticed a few other threads with similar issues but not with my model.

Open device manager, update the driver, download the windows 8 driver, point it to the windows 8 (not 8.1) folder of the driver you can download here, and it SHOULD work well enough for now.

That's how I managed it anyway.

Here's a way to get the T4UH to work with Windows 10.

It's not a TP-Link driver, but it seems to work with the T4UH...
Windows 10 Driver Instructions:

1. Open up your Device Manager
2. Expand "Network Adapters"
3. Right click the TP-Link adapter
4. Click "Browse My Computer For Driver Software"
5. Click "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"
6. UNCHECK the "Show Compatible Hardware" box & wait for an expanded list appears
7. Choose Realtek Semiconductor corp the second one listed (it ends with a period)
8. scroll down on the right and choose Realteck RTL8821AU WIRELESS LAN 802.11au USB 2.0
The T4UH should now be functional.

Good suggestions but overnight a new release to windows 10 has meant both of these solutions no longer work.

Windows 10 T4UH

From Windows7 64 bit to Windows10 64 bit:
After Windows10 was installed I noticed some problems with Explorer while using my NAS drive. I decided to try a driver reinstall.

After all Windows10 updates 18-08-2015 I even removed the T4UH driver altogether. Rebooted Windows 10. T4UH did not install automatically.
I manually pointed out the other drivers from the newest drivers i had just downloaded (Archer T4UH_V1_150116)

Win8.1 64 bit driver = no go
Win8 64 bit driver = Installed

After this episode I found the sticky explaining all this.

I thought I had a problem with speed but now it works very well after all.
Speed tested via Archer C7v2 to PC using T4UH. (PC USB3port - data transfer from NAS connected via CAT6) = up to 40 MegaBytes pr. second !
Standing applause...

The Archer C7 play really nice with T4UH now! (again)
